Pre-Orders Open for Conditioned, a New Leadership Book From Allen Weaver, PhD
The Californer/10360444

PALM SPRINGS, Calif. - Californer -- Pre-orders are now open at Barnes & Noble and other major retailers for Conditioned: How the Best Leaders Grind Less, Recover More, and Peak Longer (Morgan James Publishing, March 16, 2027), by leadership coach and human performance researcher Allen Weaver, PhD.

The book argues that most leadership development trains skills while ignoring the conditioning underneath them. Capable, credentialed leaders answer exhaustion with more effort, then wonder why their judgment has eroded. Conditioned offers a different read: performance is not one thing but ten, split across two flags. Mental Performance is how a leader shows up - awareness, resilience, mindset, focus, and drive. Wellness is how a leader sustains - emotional, physical, nutritional, sleep, and social health. Each dimension sits in one of three states, Valley, Plateau or Peak, and each moves independently.

"I spent years confusing effort with conditioning, and I see the same reasoning in nearly every leader I work with," Weaver said. "Drive is usually the dimension holding up best. What's depleted is somewhere they aren't looking, because a deficit doesn't announce itself as a deficit. It announces itself as needing to try harder. The book is about breaking that loop by reading all ten honestly, then conditioning the one that's costing the most."

Weaver draws on a doctorate in human performance, published validation research on executive performance training, and fifteen years leading leadership development inside Target, DIRECTV, and AT&T.

Early readers include Dr. Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50's top-ranked executive coach, who called it "the recovery plan" for "any leader performing on empty and calling it discipline," and Dr. Dave Ulrich, Rensis Likert Professor Emeritus at the University of Michigan, who described it as "essential reading for anyone preparing for a lifetime of leadership."
